Sidhil’s new generation of community beds

With the focus on innovation and value for money across the product range, leading healthcare suppliers Sidhil continue to drive quality and performance in the community market with the introduction of the all-new Solite Pro community beds, incorporating a redesigned four section profile offering improved alignment with the human anatomical structure.

Building on the success of the perennially popular Solite brand, the new beds also bring together added functionality and new safety features, guaranteeing total compliance with all relevant standards and regulations.

Acknowledged to be the highest specification product in its class, Sidhil’s Solite range has been constantly developed and improved over the years to provide the optimum combination of client comfort, versatility, functionality and performance.

The new generation of Solite Pro community beds brings to market high quality, UK-manufactured electrically profiling beds with electric back rest and knee break function and variable height control operated via improved actuators which add to the strength of the bed without increasing the weight of individual sections. New integral full length side rails conforming to all gapping requirements feature a unique central ‘step down’ profile for easier ingress and egress.

The individual sections of the bed have been strengthened for performance and reliability, whilst keeping unit weights below the single person moving limit, making assembly, installation and disassembly of the bed safe, quick and easy. Improved corner locking mechanisms and an improved foot section add to the functionality and versatility of the new Solite Pro.

Recognising the importance of falls prevention strategies in terms of occupant safety and wellbeing, the range also includes the Solite Pro Low bed. Descending to a mattress platform height below 30cm, the Solite Pro Low provides a tailormade solution for environments where falls prevention is an important consideration.

The leg extension for taller patients has been redesigned to further reduce the risk of entrapment and now incorporates an easy-to-use pull out and click into place spring plunger mechanism, whilst the bed retains all the popular Solite clinical features such as an auto regressing backrest to prevent pinching in the sacral area as well as infinitely variable tilt and reverse tilt positioning. An easy to use handset controls all functions

Solite Pro beds come complete with a five year warranty as standard, which can be extended to ten years for applications where a Sidhil bed service and maintenance contract remains in place.
